Experience the rare beauty of bioluminescence on this unforgettable evening tour. Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through southern Belize, where you’ll enjoy views of the Cockscomb Mountain Range and learn about the region’s Garifuna heritage from your knowledgeable guide.

Before heading out on the water, you’ll have the option to stop for dinner at a local restaurant. Choose from a traditional meal at Tugucina or enjoy something more casual at Ella’s Cool Spot. This cultural and culinary experience is the perfect way to ease into the night. Please note that dinner is an optional add-on and is not included in the tour price.

As night falls, the journey continues by boat into a quiet mangrove-lined lagoon. Here, nature comes alive in a way you have to see to believe—microscopic organisms in the water begin to glow with movement, lighting up the lagoon in bright blue sparkles. Watch fish streak through the water, leaving glowing trails, and see the wake of your boat shimmer beneath the stars.

For those feeling adventurous, swimming is allowed (at your own risk) and is often the highlight of the evening. One of our youngest guests, just 9 years old, braved the glowing waters and swam under the stars—it’s that unforgettable.

This tour is easy, accessible, and perfect for couples, families, and solo travelers alike. Whether you stay on the boat or take a dip, the magic of the glowing water is a moment you’ll remember long after the night ends.
